According to Dr. Bellier, who relies in particular on “declining hospitalization curves”, there is “no more epidemic” of Covid-19.

“With 7,000 positive cases per day, there is nothing!

These are healthy carriers, otherwise it should be littered with corpses in the streets!

», Assured the pulmonologist.

The mask should have been "compulsory in March-April", while making the wearing of the mask compulsory currently "prevents mass protection", or even could lead to other "epidemics" such as pneumonia, because of the continuous wearing of the mask. , he said again, accusing the rulers of "incompetence, especially in medical matters".

The pulmonologist predicts that the coronavirus epidemic will die out "on its own", like the Spanish flu at the start of the 20th century.
